High Above Wall Street

We all know the intersection of Wall and Broad streets is one of the most photographed places in New York City. It’s the meeting place of Federal Hall, the Stock Exchange, rotating streets, bustling commuters and excited tourists. Yesterday I visited a friend who works on the 45th floor of 40 Wall Street, the Trump Building. I had to battle vertigo to get this picture, but it was worth it. When I stand in front of the Stock Exchange I admire the imposing structure. From this angle it seems small yet just as significant. Oh, and it has a copper roof!
